Military Ball

Carter JROTC

Military Ball

Our Military Ball is an age-old tradition held annually. The Ball is an occasion for which students dress in their finest uniforms. Female cadets have the option of wearing their uniforms or an evening gown and males wear their Class A uniform with a white shirt and black bow tie. The Military Ball is an opportunity for cadets, instructors, the administration, teachers, and guests to interact in a social setting. The evening consists of a formal receiving line, the posting of the colors (flags), a formal dinner, entertainment, crowning of the Ball King and Queen, a guest speaker, and a dance. In addition, all cadets who are seniors and enrolled in JROTC for three or more years are recognized individually during the evening by entering through a “Saber Arch” to honor them for their hard-work and dedication to the program.
